ElasticSearch's new "Percolator" feature, which enabled to index queries and find which documents match them : instead of sending docs, indexing them, and then running queries, one sends queries, registers them, and then sends docs and finds out which queries match that doc.
A distributed, highly available and restful search engine. It looks very promising and rather easy to deploy and have working. The killer feature : schema-less indexing (auto-discovery based on conventions). A serious concurrent to Solr ?
An interesting article from Lucid Imagination employee Mark Miller about Scaling Solr. It gives a lot of good practices and tips on how to get the best out of one indexing machine, and explains how to use Solr built-in replication system.

about:
Symfony Solr search plugin, which binds the Solr indexation / removal / search to Symfony events, and thus easily brings Solr search into Symfony projects. The (de-)indexation process could however be improved by overriding the save/delete model methods.
The problem with both keywords and tags is that they are just words. But what would happen if, instead of words, we used objects? What if we used unique concepts that would always and everywhere have the same name and would refer to the specific object?
PDANet turns your iPhone into a true WiFi router for your computer (MAC or PC), and allows your laptop to go online wirelessly through the 3G network on the iPhone. You will need to jailbreak your iPhone and install it through Cydia. It is as simple as launching Cydia, go to Search and enter "PdaNet".
A google-interface behaves similar to a unix-shell. Several commands are available : mapsearch, translation, blogsearch, newsearch, and of course the traditionnal websearch. Love it.

Yahoo opens to the semantic web.
A few weeks ago, we began talking about the new Yahoo! Search open platform. Today, we're releasing more details about two important components of the initiative -- the developer platform as well as our support of a number of semantic web standards.
Sphinx is a standalone search engine, meant to provide fast, size-efficient and relevant fulltext search functions to other applications. Sphinx was specially designed to integrate well with SQL databases and scripting languages. Currently built-in data sources support fetching data either via direct connection to MySQL or PostgreSQL, or using XML pipe mechanism (a pipe to indexer in special XML-based format which Sphinx recognizes).
